TutorAI

A patient AI tutor that answers from the student's own textbook, makes them think, and keeps learning going when the school gates are closed.

The problem

Learning stops when the help stops

Students and teachers in Manipur tell us the same thing: the textbook is there, but the support around it is not.

What students face

  • No one to ask after school. Doubts pile up at home, and many students have no tutor.
  • The answer is in the book, but the language is dense and hard to navigate.
  • Many stay silent in class rather than risk looking slow.
  • They do not know which topics are weak until the exam shows them.
  • Many think in Manipuri or Hindi but study from English textbooks.
  • General AI tools explain topics their own way, which may differ from the prescribed book.
  • A shared family phone, low data and no money for paid tools limit access.

What teachers face

  • Even with the textbook in hand, they often lose track of what to teach and where to start.
  • Large classes leave little time for individual doubts.
  • Planning lessons, quizzes and revision takes hours they do not have.
  • They cannot easily see which topics the whole class struggles with.
  • They want guidance they can trust, that fits the official curriculum and training they have been through.

What Manipur adds. Schools close often and without warning because of bandhs, shutdowns and unrest. Syllabus plans fall apart and students lose weeks. Students need a way to keep learning on their own when the classroom is closed, and teachers need a way to find the thread again when it reopens.

What we believe

Eleven principles behind TutorAI

  1. Start from the student's own bookAnswers come from the prescribed textbook and point to the chapter and page.
  2. Be there when no one else isA patient tutor after school and during closures, with no fear of looking foolish.
  3. Make students thinkHints come before answers. The tutor asks students to try, explain in their own words and recall without looking. It does not hand over finished homework. It is designed to make students stronger, not dependent.
  4. Self-practice is the heart of itEndless practice and mock tests in the board's pattern, adapting to each student.
  5. Show students where they standA topic-by-topic record shows what they know, what to revise and what to practise next.
  6. Give teachers a guideChapter-wise guidance, quiz and lesson plan drafts. Teachers review everything, and the tool never replaces their judgement.
  7. Work within official guidanceTeacher support follows the framework of NCERT, SCERT and NCTE, and names the source and section it draws from.
  8. Help classes recover from disruptionAfter a closure, the tutor helps students and teachers see what was missed and plan a catch-up.
  9. Work for all studentsIt opens from a link on a basic smartphone, uses little data and is free within daily limits.
  10. Keep children safeParental consent for minors, only the data needed, and no advertising, as the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 requires.
  11. Be honest and accountableAnswers are tied to the books, wrong answers can be reported, and teachers review samples. We will report pilot results, whatever they are.

How it will look

Nothing to install

For a student

Open TutorAI from a link on a phone and choose your class and language once. Ask about a topic, send a photo of a page, or start practising. The tutor answers from your textbook, shows the chapter and page, then asks you to try. Practice gets harder or easier as your record builds.

For a teacher

Sign in to a separate view with a teaching guide for each chapter, ready quizzes, lesson plan drafts and a class summary of weak topics. Teachers see class patterns, never individual chats.

Our roadmap

Built in stages, each proving the one before

  1. Stage 1Textbook tutor and teaching guidesAnswers from prescribed books with page citations, and chapter-wise guides for teachers.
  2. Stage 2Practice and mock testsTopic-wise practice and board-pattern mock tests that adapt to each student, with verified answer keys.
  3. Stage 3Exam preparationAnnual and board exam preparation, with competitive exams to follow.
  4. Stage 4Teacher insightsClass-wise weak topics and re-teaching suggestions aligned to learning outcomes.

A Manipur where every student has a patient, syllabus-aware tutor that makes them think harder, every teacher knows where to start, and learning continues even when the school gates are closed.

Where we are now

A pilot-stage programme

We are preparing the textbook and teacher reference material and building the first version. We will test it in a small group of schools, compare against similar schools without it, and report what we find.
